[quote=Anonymous]Finally, a question where I'm a subject matter expert! (Wait a minute, that's not a good thing) For the past three years since the baby was born, we've been a one income household. At 41k a year, the take home pay is roughly 1400 every two weeks after taxes and the $220 biweekly insurance deduction. We live in a 530 sq ft one-bedroom apartment in Ward 3 and pay $1550 a month with utilities included. No car note Car insurance=$100 Metro= $120 Student Loans= $400 Internet=$60 Cell Phone Family Plan=$130 (no landline phone) We don't have a whole lot leftover after groceries, but we get by somehow. I definitely noticed a difference from when we had two incomes. I really notice a difference from when we were +$100k in NC's lovely cost of living. But like they say, that which doesn't kill me better take off running. [/quote]
